Lisa
Nice stay at a quaint house.
July 2025
Jon was very good at communicating details before and during our stay, which we appreciated. This ended up being a better location than we first thought - once we discovered the 17 bus stopped at a nearby corner and helped with the commute to the downtown area. Be prepared for stairs - we knew there were stairs from the pictures and description, but didn't realize there were quite so many to get into the house!

Fun...fun....fun

So enjoyed this place. Lots of nostalgia to explore and have fun with. Superb location to the beach and downtown Seattle, as well as the zoo. Older home with the laughable squeaks some of us grew up with. Fit our family of 4 adults, a baby and a toddler perfect. Lots of entertainment for the 4 yr old. Hosts, Jon and Kara were easy to deal with and very accommodating. Very relaxing area. Nice remodel upstairs Would love to return sometime.

Really Fun Place!
June 2024
This was our second time staying at Happy Valley, and it was just as great as the first time! Jon & Kara are very responsive hosts, and try their best to think of all the little things that go into making a great experience for their guests. We loved having a nice outdoor area and plenty of room to stretch out inside as well. This is not a cookie-cutter hotel type of place; instead, it is a house filled with color, creative personality, nice furnishings and a sense of humor. It is a very special place!

We felt so at home here
September 2023
And I dont want to go overboard and then have you all flock here so we cannot get a reservation again! Selfish us to want to keep hush about it. So so lovely! The owners are super responsive and kind. The lush greenery made me feel like we were in a rainforest. There are plenty of outdoor games in a compact space, like badminton. Nice swing under grape vines. It could be sunny just 500 ft down the way but a fog bank at Happy Valley might settle in to give you some variety. But don't forget, ypu can drop down to Shilshoe Bay in just a few minutes. Amazing restaurants, like Ray's Cafe a short drive away in Ballard. The house has these adorable windows upstairs. If you like quaint architectural features of 1930's, this may be the place for you.
